Hello,

I'm a newbie still on the fence about purchasing CAT.  Here's my top 10 list of questions or concerns.  Please forgive any silly or obvious errors.  Yes, I did read the FAQ, but not every post in these threads.

1.  How do you conduct the transaction to purchase CAT?  are you using a third party escrow?

2.  I know you mention free upgrades, but is that really forever?  I can expect all new features and 2.0 and 3.0 for free as well?  Where's the incentive for you in that?

3.  What's your development roadmap look like for the next 3-6 months?  how often are your updates/bugfixes?

4.  It seems there is a "I'm losing money" or "I want to sell my version" post every so often on this thread.  Why not offer them a partial refund?  couldn't you just exempt them from future upgrades?

5.  What's the average amount someone needs to use CAT, including the purchase price?  1 BTC plus 2 or 3 BTC to trade?  is that low or high?  does it scale to even larger amounts?

6.  Any performance measurements on CAT?  does it run better on windows or mac or linux? 

7.  I want to run this on a PC and just leave it alone.  But can I?  How often do I need to maintain the program?  Cancel all trades and restart it daily?

8.  What I've read of the Ping/Pong strategy is that its only useful in a sideways market.  is that true?  Won't it sell short on big upward trends and hold too long on doward trends? 

9.  I'm interested in writing my own simple strategies, is there any support for that?

10.  Current users:  What do you like most about CAT?  what do you dislike (if anything) about it?  Are you more stressed out using it or less?

Honestly this really seems like a great application.  Sampey, you clearly put a lot of time and effort in writing this and it shows.  But purchasing this does come with a lot of risk.  Personally I feel I've done OK with a buy/hold strategy with alt coins.  But I do admit its time consuming and I miss out on the dips when I'm not online.  If I decide to pull the trigger, I just want to everything I can to increase my odds of success with CAT.   

thanks!

If anyone wants to talk about C.A.T and/or share ideas; I made an IRC channel on http://webchat.quakenet.org #C.A.T

So how is everyone choosing their market and %gain ?

I assume small volumes are bad; and big % is bad too because too slow / swinguy ?

what parameters do you usually use in normal mode ?

Do you use the #sell all if % ref price ?

cheers

I made the last 24 hours 0.035 gain with 10 markets and 2BTC balance.
However I made the first 0.030 in the first 12 hours.

In BETA 9 i will add a function to convert all to BTC before stops

Nope, I'm just trusting the Global Gain log

have you tried to convert all your altcoin into bitcoin...?
did you get same result in bitcoin?

I must check the code to be more precise but :
- Ping Pong Lookup routine call for "My Orders" and didn't found order ID XXXXXX (that is saved in CAT Memory)
- So.....it makes a Call to MyTrade to find the Trade relative to this orders, but found nothing

First 24h result:

+0.21353620 BTC
+4.45825733 LTC

Trading on 15-20 markets

What exactly does the "Lost An Order (Maybe Cryptsy Problem)" error mean?
That my order has not gone through at Cryptsy, but I still get my coins back? Or are my coins now "gone"? I am asking this because I hear a lot of people complaining about missing coins.

I know, Samps, but I'm not using CAT very often lately. I have lost some BTC due to a trojan I downloaded and now I'm recovering slowly.
I had the chance to double my money on alts more than 5 times in 1 week. Couldn't, because damn cryptsy is lagging. BTER is such a better place at this moment. I'll come back to cryptsy when it gets fixed ENTIRELY.

I can make new account on cryptsy and buy another copy later on : )

I suggest to Wait. Cryptsy will sure return faster and with new function.
Stops CAT now if you doesn't feel comfortable, but i suggest you to take care of your copy.......CAT price will rise in the future (surely when FIAT markets will be open)

I'm selling mine for .8 BTC. With my cryptsy account. I'm going to move to BTER or BTC-e, haven't decided yet.

( Selling it because I've started to think that I'm losing my money on cryptsy because it's not functioning well, nothing wrong with CAT)

Ahahaah great name!

My C.A.T is doing WAY better than expected. Would quit my job if I had one 

In the next CAT Version (Beta i have done a lot of code review and semplification. Surely there will be less ram used and many GUI parts will be "on Demand".
I have done this kind of reorganization to be more responsive to change request from CAT Users.
After that, in Beta 9 i will write a new part about error like "Order not created after 25 retry", i want to create an auto-restore process for zombie markets and give more information to users about problems.

More of this code is due to Cryptsy's server problem, BUT, when all will return normal, CAT will become a TIGER 

^^^^^

They will be back, don't worry.
I had the same problem yesterday. I sent them a ticket and got a reply and my founds back in less than 5 hours

Could you show me your settings for LTC/BTC market, please? : )
In PM if You don't feel comfortable to share here

Cryptsy lost all my LTC (60-90 worth).  BTC /LTC used to be my best market in CATS until that happened.  When I used other markets I would get left holding the bag with tons of alt coins that lost value.  It has been two days since I put in my ticket and they keep sending me emails saying to let them know if I still have a problem...
